An Evening with Kilchoman: Islay's Farm Distillery Comes to Us
Every single malt distillery in Scotland performs the same small miracle. They take three humble ingredients and, through a mix of craft, patience and a touch of sorcery, turn those humble ingredients into liquid gold. (If you've joined one of our Introduction to Single Malt Scotch tastings, you already know this!)
But here's the magic: no two distilleries cast the spell quite the same way. Ask any of our guests just back from our 2026 Scotland distillery tour, and they'll tell you that every stillhouse has its own secrets, quirks and character.
Now you can uncover the secrets of one very special distillery without leaving the state. 🥃
Join us for an intimate evening with James Wills of Kilchoman Distillery, the independent farm distillery on the Isle of Islay. James and his brother Peter run Kilchoman's worldwide sales and marketing, so you'll be hearing the story straight from the family.
Want to geek out on the finest details of barley, peat and stills? Go for it. Curious about the two distillery cats who delight in tormenting the owner? Also fair game! The conversation is open and informal, and no question is too big, or too small
And did we mention the whisky? We'll be pouring five expressions of Kilchoman as we explore everything this remarkable distillery has to offer.
